Shanks

Twisted V Ranch Pasture-Raised Lamb Shanks

For a truly succulent and flavorful meal, our Pasture-Raised Lamb Shanks from Twisted V Ranch are the perfect choice. Lamb shanks, prized for their rich, fall-off-the-bone tenderness, are ideal for slow-cooking methods like braising, roasting, or stewing. This cut offers deep, savory flavor that intensifies as it cooks, making it perfect for hearty, comforting meals that are sure to impress.

Our lamb is ethically raised on open pastures, where they roam freely and graze on nutrient-rich grass. This pasture-raised, hormone-free lifestyle results in tender, flavorful meat that’s rich in nutrients and free from artificial additives. Whether you’re preparing a classic lamb shank stew, a flavorful Moroccan-inspired tagine, or slow-roasting the shanks with garlic and herbs, our lamb shanks deliver exceptional taste and quality every time.

Why Our Lamb Shanks Stand Out

Pasture-Raised for Superior Flavor and Quality

Our Lamb Shanks come from lambs raised on open pastures, where they graze naturally and live stress-free lives. This pasture-raised lifestyle enhances the natural flavor of the lamb, resulting in meat that’s tender and packed with a rich, savory taste. Our lamb shanks are ideal for slow cooking, as the long cooking time allows the meat to become incredibly tender, with the bone adding extra depth to the dish.

Hormone-Free and Additive-Free

We raise our lambs without synthetic hormones, ensuring that our Lamb Shanks are free from artificial additives. This commitment to natural, ethical farming practices ensures that you’re enjoying a product that’s pure, wholesome, and full of rich, natural flavor.

Perfect for Slow-Cooking

Lamb shanks are ideal for braising, slow-roasting, or simmering in a flavorful broth or sauce. As the shanks cook slowly, the connective tissue breaks down, creating tender, juicy meat that falls off the bone. The bone itself adds even more richness to the dish, making lamb shanks a favorite for traditional comfort foods and gourmet meals alike.

What are Lamb Shanks?

Lamb Shanks are a cut from the lower part of the leg, known for their robust flavor and ability to become meltingly tender when slow-cooked. The natural marbling and connective tissue in the shank make it perfect for long, slow-cooking methods, such as braising or roasting. This cut absorbs flavors beautifully, making it a favorite in dishes like lamb stew, osso buco, or Moroccan tagine.

Lamb shanks are often cooked with aromatic herbs, spices, and vegetables, allowing the rich flavor of the meat to meld with the other ingredients for a dish that’s both hearty and full of depth.

Uses for Lamb Shanks:

Braised Lamb Shanks: Slowly cook the lamb shanks in red wine, broth, and herbs for a melt-in-your-mouth dish that’s perfect for a cozy dinner. Serve with mashed potatoes or polenta for a complete, comforting meal.

Slow-Cooked Lamb Tagine: Add lamb shanks to a slow-cooked Moroccan-inspired tagine with spices, dried fruit, and chickpeas for a flavorful, warming meal that’s perfect for special occasions.

Lamb Osso Buco: Cook the shanks in a rich tomato-based sauce with garlic and rosemary for an Italian-style osso buco that pairs perfectly with risotto or crusty bread.

Why Our Lamb Shanks are a Healthier Choice

At Twisted V Ranch, we’re committed to raising lamb that’s both flavorful and nutrient-rich. Our Pasture-Raised Lamb Shanks offer a wholesome, natural option that’s packed with essential vitamins and minerals.

Rich in High-Quality Protein: Lamb shanks are an excellent source of lean protein, making them a satisfying and nutritious choice for any meal. Protein is essential for building and repairing muscles and supporting overall health.

Nutrient-Dense: Lamb is naturally rich in important nutrients such as iron, zinc, B vitamins, and omega-3 fatty acids. These nutrients play a key role in supporting immune function, cardiovascular health, and maintaining energy levels.

Free from Hormones and Additives: Like all of our meats, our lamb shanks are raised without synthetic hormones, additional additives, or artificial additives. This ensures that you’re enjoying a pure, natural product that’s both delicious and wholesome.

Vacuum-Sealed for Freshness

To ensure maximum freshness and flavor, our Lamb Shanks are vacuum-sealed immediately after processing. This packaging locks in the natural juices and prevents freezer burn, ensuring that the lamb shanks stay as fresh and delicious as the day they were prepared. Whether you’re planning to cook them right away or store them for later, our vacuum-sealed packaging guarantees peak quality and taste.
